Lost Boy Studios - A Media Discussion Broad

[Lostboyfan]

Hello Everyone,

I thought I share my little vbulletin site here at VB.org. Its a small media discussion board where you can make make videos and other creative connect and share them on forums for people to discuss.

Here is the main domain name for it.

http://lostboystudios.com/

We redirected it to the forums since we are still working on some stuff but feel free to join it if you want too. I would also like to add to that I know the banner is out of place at the moment but the one you are going to see is only a temp one for now. So don't worry about it to much.

Have fun and hope to see you soon on the boards. Plus let me hear your opinions too.

If any of you guys have questions feell free to ask me on there. I am one of the admins and would be happy to help.

[Lostboyfan]

Thank you Gero50 for posting and yes he is one of the admins on the site. Is anyone anyone else going to post in here? If not then I guess that means there is nothing wrong with our site.

hmmm , here is my C&C .... i feel like vB4 has taken a step back instead of forward with the designs... and to make things worse , they didnt really include some helpful tutorials to create awesomeness out of the power of CSS... So this leads me to say that the colors you chose are not quite that which i would like.. (personally) ... the buttons are pretty not well designed , you can do better, digg in the code create your own custom code, and as i posted on a previous post , go take some tutorial lessons on colors , CSS , and i can guarantee you will create a better looking site..

Unfortunately , its not really a great site in terms of eye appeal ... i would give it a 3/10.. let me know when you have made some changes.

Regards

You can PM Greo50 for all of the style questions and thanks for you opinion. That means a lot to me and the staff. We are planing to make new a new style in the future.

I would like to ask though. What colors do you think we should use for our media site?

[merk_aus]

I like the idea of the website, and being in the media field myself (although slightly different) I always love checking out websites that are media orientated.

However as said above the colors and overall design leave alot lacking. I don't mean for this to sound disrespectful as I do know how hard it is to be working on a forum my network has four and it's been a six month project so far that will hopefully be completed shortly so I do understand how much work is involved with designing a forum.

I think with some slight modifications to the overall layout/style it can be visually appealing and when I finish my network which would hopefully be very soon (am hopeful for tonight) I would be more than happy to offer my services free of charge to help you with some design work - as someone who is not directly connected to the site.

I think the right idea is there, and really like what your doing but for me to spend time somewhere posting etc I need to like the layout as if I don't like the layout I wouldn't be going there.

I wish you all the best and hope you keep us updated with any design changes you make.

Thanks For your opinion. I'm glad that you like the path that we are taking. Makes me happy. If you want to help with some styling Ideas you are more than welcome to do so.

The design really does not catch my eyes nor do I even like it, might want to find a better one maybe, other than that the sites great.

Yeah we a planing a new and better style. Its just going to take some to make it. Glad you like the site though for its theme.

If any of you have suggestions for colors. Let me know please.

I kinda like the style... I don't know about your "Post Farming" rules though... a bit harsh IMO, seems at this point any traffic is good traffic until things start to take off.

Thanks yeah that what we are hoping for, more traffic. Yeah we are in the works of cleaning up the Q & A area of the site.

However the post flaming is not harsh at all. Its just there incase someone wanted to read it :). The only two main ones that are important are the Guidelines (http://www.lostboystudios.com/forum/showthread.php?t=92) and Ban Policy (http://www.lostboystudios.com/forum/showthread.php?t=198).

I got an Banned IP message?

I'm based in Poland. What could that be?

Hello Chonker. Send me your IP in a PM and I can see if its in our ban IP. That's wired though cause we don't have many banned Ips.

[Lostboyfan]

I know i'm bumping this but I just wanted to say that I bought a sytle for my site since customizing it wasn't working out. Here is a link to our new style.

Its still being worked on. We still have to put up our logo. But it should be done soon.
